Hello and welcome! This is the guide to formatting and uploading all the information of your Cepholopod onto the OCtism /ink/cyclopedia Wiki!
The entire point of creating a wiki is to have a complete archival of all things related to Splatoon 2 OCtism, all the work we've put in over the past two years can now be compiled into a single place, so I'm hoping you'll post all the art, stories and headcanons of your ceph that you have! Let nothing go to waste or be forgotten!

Please follow these rules the best you can so we can have a consistent and quality archive for anything OC related.

1. Your ingame photo
	Upload an ingame photo of your ceph to https://waifu2x.booru.pics/ and scale it to appear high quality, please don't upload directly from your switch as the quality is hot ass.

2. Guidelines
	In the name of uniformity things like skintone, ink+eye color and legwear all have standardized names for ease of recreation, please follow these guidelines when filling out your ceph descriptions.

Skin Tones!
(1) Pale, (2) Light, (3) Fair, (4) Tan, (5) Dark, (6) Chocolate, (7) Abyss
---
Eye Colours! (Left to Right, Top to Bottom)
(1) Blue, (2) Green, (3) Yellow, (4) Orange, (5) Red, (6) Pink, (7)Purple

3. Your wiki page
	-The very first thing you want to do after creating a new article is switch the editor from "Visual" to "Source" as seen here https://i.imgur.com/nuXwbLP.png
	-Next up copy the template code we've created and replace what's in the source with it

==Profile==
<p style="text-align: center;">'''A Note about them, optional'''</p>
-Fill this with space with a basic description of their personality and character traits, a general character summary-

==Physical Description==
-Descriptions of (YourCeph). Alternate clothing, unique hairstyle stuff and whatever else can go here too-

==Image Gallery=
-this is where you upload photos of your ceph! if the image ends up under the text box, simply align it to the left-

==Triva==
-useless facts!-

If you want to add more sections, like "relationships" or "backstory" simply do "==whatever==".
Linking to other pages is encouraged!

	Once you've filled this out feel free to switch back to "Visual" and continue adding and editing from there.

Lastly this is a community project, meaning if there are cephs that are notable but their owners aren't around anymore, you're allowed to attempt to create a page for them and let others edit it as well, of course this isn't required and it's preferred if you flesh out your own ceph's wiki page before going on to others.

Have fun! Make Wikiwoomy proud!
